Welcome to My World of Brunswick and the B&O!

Now that I am semi-retired as editor/publisher of The Brunswick Citizen I can spend more time writing and researching about the B&O Railroad and the people of Brunswick who played such a major role in its infancy and growth to maturity and adult-hood.

The Brunswick Historical Press is where one may find my stories and novels which honor the people and the community of Brunswick.

‘Brunswick Stew’ is about a fictional family but includes many real, historical figures. Besides being a noted recipe the title also indicates the diverse elements that went into the making of Brunswick: the people from many lands (especially England, Germany, Italy and Ireland) and the many occupations such as farming, carpentry and mechanic which all came here and played their roles as builders and operators of the B&O Railroad. The title emphasizes that Brunswick’s heritage is a mixture like a stew.

I continue to research and write about the B&O Railroad and hope to find others who will read this blog ( as well as my books ) and add their comments to this blog and to contact me with any interesting historical information they may have.

For an introduction to my books please go to http://BrunswickHistoricalPress.com  Then let me hear from you so I can add more stew to the pot !

Thanks and enjoy the ride   – PM
